Swordsmen Roofing builds a reputation on integrity, transparency, and precision workmanship. We focus on long-term value, not quick fixes. Our teams use proven materials and follow strict processes so roofs last longer and protect what matters most to owners and managers.

Many contractors chase speed. We chase long-term asset protection. That means smarter choices, careful installs, and clear communication. If you want a roof that pays back in energy savings and reliability, you will want to work with Swordsmen Roofing and our trusted crews.

We serve warehouses, offices, healthcare, retail, and mixed-use sites. Our work covers full replacements, repairs, installs, and rejuvenation. Each job gets a tailored plan based on roof load, slope, and budget. We make sure owners see clear options and costs up front.

  • Commercial roof replacements and new installs
  • Targeted repairs and emergency service
  • Roof coatings and energy-saving upgrades
  • Maintenance plans and multi-building programs

Owners pick us for reliable timelines, clear budgets, and skilled installers. We partner with American-made manufacturers to get durable systems that resist heat, impact, and wind. Our teams keep disruptions low so businesses can keep running during work.

We also offer design options for visual projects. If your property needs an architectural look, we match materials to the building while focusing on performance and lifespan. Trust our experience when design matters.

Florida demands roofs that beat sun, rain, and storms. We design systems for energy performance and strong wind resistance. Reflective roofs cut cooling costs for warehouses and offices and often return savings over time. That means a smarter investment for owners.

Systems include TPO, metal, asphalt, and composite options. Each system is matched to the building's slope, weight limits, and maintenance plan. We pick the best fit so the roof performs well for years with low upkeep.

TPO is a top choice for flat and low-slope roofs when energy savings matter. It reflects heat, lowers building cooling loads, and works with insulation to boost efficiency. Our crews install TPO with attention to seams and drains to prevent leaks and ponding water.

  • High-reflectivity membranes for lower cooling costs
  • Durable seam welding and flashings
  • Options for reinforced and thicker membranes
  • Compatible with warranty-backed insulation systems

Metal roofs offer long life and strong impact resistance. They are ideal for many commercial buildings and provide fast water shedding. We install metal panels and standing-seam systems with attention to thermal movement and secure fastenings.

Choose metal for durability, low maintenance, and a modern look. We work on attachment methods that meet Florida wind requirements for tough weather and long life.

Asphalt and composite roofs are versatile for sloped buildings and smaller commercial sites. They provide good performance with thoughtful ventilation and underlayments. We select products that resist UV and hold up in coastal climates.

For immediate answers or to book an inspection, call us at 833-791-7377. We walk you through quick options and next steps so your team can plan repairs or replacements without guesswork.

Meeting Hurricane & Wind-Zone Roof Compliance (FBC/HVHZ) is vital in Florida. We design and build systems to comply with local and state codes. Our approach reduces risk, speeds permitting, and supports insurance needs for owners in high wind zones.

Compliance means the right attachments, correct fastener patterns, and tested assemblies. We document each step to help with permit reviews and insurance conversations. This reduces surprises during approvals and after inspections.

We review wind maps, building height, and exposure to pick the right system and attachment method. Our staff ensures plans match Florida Building Code needs. We prepare documentation and test reports to back up each system choice and installation method.

  • Wind zone assessment and code compliance checks
  • Attachment methods and uplift calculations
  • Permit-ready drawings and manufacturer data
  • Inspection-ready documentation for building officials

Attachments are the backbone of a code-compliant roof. We use tested fasteners, plates, and adhesives where required. Proper attachment reduces risk of uplift in storms and helps roofs stay in place during high winds. That keeps property and people safer.

Our crews follow manufacturer test methods and verify pull-out values in place. The result is a roof built to hold up to the forces it will face over time and in severe weather events.

We help clients navigate insurance claims and permit reviews for projects subject to FBC/HVHZ. We coordinate with adjusters and provide the documentation needed to support approvals. This makes the process smoother for property owners.

Call to discuss compliance plans and warranty options at 833-791-7377. We explain how certified assemblies and wind-resistant details often qualify for stronger warranty coverage and better insurance outcomes.

Routine care keeps roofs working longer. Our maintenance contracts focus on key items like drains, flashings, and seams. A regular check reduces leaks and expensive surprises. We offer seasonal programs for property managers with many sites.

For older roofs, rejuvenation can be a smart choice. Coatings and surface treatments restore waterproofing and reflectivity for a fraction of replacement cost. We evaluate systems to recommend repair, coating, or full replacement.

Our preventive plans are simple and effective. We inspect, clean drains, seal penetrations, and report findings. Monthly or quarterly programs keep properties safe and let managers budget repairs without late surprises. Maintenance prevents small issues from becoming major problems.

  • Scheduled inspections and condition reports
  • Cleaning of gutters, scuppers, and drains
  • Minor repairs and proactive sealing
  • Cost forecasts for needed replacements

When water gets in, quick action matters. Our repair teams respond fast to stop leaks and protect interiors. We use proven repair materials and make temporary fixes that prevent further damage until permanent repairs can be scheduled.

We document repairs with photos and notes so managers know what was done and why. Quick repair keeps downtime low and avoids costly secondary damage to structure and contents.

Coatings restore waterproofing and add reflectivity to lower cooling bills. We choose products that bond well to the existing roof and meet local wind and fire criteria. A good coating can extend life and delay costly replacements.

To schedule an evaluation or to learn if a coating makes sense, call 833-791-7377. We provide clear numbers and predicted lifecycle benefits so owners can decide with confidence.

Good projects need great planning and follow-through. Our project managers handle scheduling, permits, materials, and quality checks. We keep teams on track so projects finish on time and on budget. Clear updates help owners and tenants plan around work.

We use disciplined processes from start to finish. That includes safety checks, daily logs, and manufacturer inspections. Our crews are trained to install to the standard that each system requires, which reduces callbacks and increases lifespan.

Our roof crews train on materials and safe work methods. Safety plans protect workers and building occupants. Skilled teams install flashing, membrane, and metal systems with consistent detail work that prevents leaks and improves longevity.

  • OSHA-aware procedures and jobsite safety plans
  • Factory-trained installers for key systems
  • Quality control and punch-list finish checks

We plan work to reduce tenant disruption and keep operations moving. Our teams can work nights, weekends, or in staged sections. We coordinate with property teams and vendors so deliveries and access are smooth and predictable.

Owners see clear timelines and milestone updates. This professional coordination minimizes surprises and helps operations stay productive while work is in progress.

We partner with top manufacturers for product support and warranties. As a TAMKO Diamond Contractor and Brava Preferred, we can offer special options and backed warranties for select assemblies. These partnerships mean better product support for long-term performance.
